GOING: S(5)

FORSTER BOWLING CLUB MAIDEN PLATE 1005m

Track: Soft 5   Rain (Max: 20)   Rail: +1.5m 550m-300m, True Remainder.  

Genuine pace with The Michael taking up the running ahead of In And Away and One For Hesko. WOOTTON PLEASE (12) battled on fairly without threatening when fresh from a spell over 900m at Newcastle last start. Only needs to improve a little from that performance to be taking out a race like this. HELLAVALEGACY (10) led and tried hard but was claimed at the 100m pole last time out over this trip at Port Macquarie. That was a big improvement on the first-up effort so she is heading in the right direction. MR CORNSTAR (3) is back after an 18-week spell. Showed nothing in the maiden campaign but a recent Wyong trial win suggests he may have more to offer this time in work. THE MICHAEL (4) has not appeared since a modest fourth on debut at Wauchope in October. Each-way chance in a thin race. FERVI (9) placed in a recent Beaumont trial and is one to watch for a market push on debut. SUGGESTED PLAY: Wootton Please to win the opener.
